However, Rademacher told People that he knew he was not in particularly close competition with finalists Zendaya, Kellie Pickler, Aly Raisman and Jacoby Jones.

"If we would have been a little bit closer to the other celebrities as far as performances went - if I had been a little bit stronger, a little bit fitter, a little bit younger - then we would have maybe been a little bit more disappointed about going home," he said. "But because it wasn't quite there, it was okay."

Rademacher joked that he's pleased he doesn't have to learn more dances for the finale, saying: "I'm sore, I'm tired, and this is it. We're going to have a party tonight while everyone else has to worry about choreographing. I'm really going to party."

He added that he is pleased with the way he spent his last two weeks on Dancing with the Stars, saying: "The jive and the Charleston were super fun, so we took it as far as we could take it and we're super happy."

The Dancing with the Stars finale will air Monday and Tuesday (May 20 and May 21) on ABC.
